GetUnicastIpAddressEntry function
The GetUnicastIpAddressEntry function retrieves information for an existing unicast IP address entry on a local computer.
Syntax
NETIOAPI_API GetUnicastIpAddressEntry(
_Inout_ PMIB_UNICASTIPADDRESS_ROW Row
);
Parameters
- Row [in, out]
A pointer to a MIB_UNICASTIPADDRESS_ROW structure entry for a unicast IP address entry. On successful return, this structure is updated with the properties for an existing unicast IP address.
Return value
GetUnicastIpAddressEntry returns STATUS_SUCCESS if the function succeeds.
If the function fails, GetUnicastIpAddressEntry returns one of the following error codes:
| Return code | Description |
|---|---|
| STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER | An invalid parameter was passed to the function. This error is returned if a NULL pointer is passed in the Row parameter, the Address member of the MIB_UNICASTIPADDRESS_ROW structure that the Row parameter points to was not set to a valid unicast IPv4 or IPv6 address, or both InterfaceLuid and InterfaceIndex members of the MIB_UNICASTIPADDRESS_ROW structure were unspecified. |
| STATUS_NOT_FOUND | The specified interface could not be found. This error is returned if the function cannot find the network interface that is specified by the InterfaceLuid or InterfaceIndex member of the MIB_UNICASTIPADDRESS_ROW structure that the Row parameter points to. |
| STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED | The request is not supported. This error is returned if no IPv4 stack is located on the local computer and an IPv4 address was specified in the Address member of the MIB_UNICASTIPADDRESS_ROW structure that the Row parameter points to, or if no IPv6 stack is located on the local computer and an IPv6 address was specified in the Address member. |
| Other | Use the FormatMessage function to obtain the message string for the returned error. |
Remarks
The GetUnicastIpAddressEntry function is typically used to retrieve an existing MIB_UNICASTIPADDRESS_ROW structure entry to be modified. A driver can then change the members in the MIB_UNICASTIPADDRESS_ROW entry that it wants to modify, and then call the SetUnicastIpAddressEntry function.
On input, your driver must initialize the following members of the MIB_UNICASTIPADDRESS_ROW structure that the Row parameter points to.
Address
Set to a valid unicast IPv4 or IPv6 address and family.InterfaceLuid or InterfaceIndex
These members are used in the order that is listed earlier. So if InterfaceLuid is specified, this member is used to determine the interface. If no value was set for the InterfaceLuid member (the value of this member was set to zero), the InterfaceIndex member is next used to determine the interface.
On output, when the call is successful, GetUnicastIpAddressEntry retrieves the other properties for the unicast IP address and fills in the MIB_UNICASTIPADDRESS_ROW structure that the Row parameter points to.
Your driver can call the GetUnicastIpAddressTable function to enumerate the unicast IP address entries on a local computer.
